Shikhandini Stories

The night reeks of burning ghee and sandalwood, the pyre's flames licking the sky like the tongues of an angry god. Draped in crimson, Amba steps forward, her hair loose, her eyes fixed not on the crowd but on the void beyond. The air trembles with the chant of funeral mantras-yet this is no funeral for the dead, but a declaration of war by the living. Her voice, steady as steel, calls upon the gods to bear witness to her curse upon Bhisma. Then, without faltering, she casts herself into the fire. In that instant, the blaze becomes more than heat-it is a seed of destiny, smoldering through the cycles of time, until it will rise again on the battlefield as Sikhandi, the harbinger of Bhisma's fall. • In the shadow of Kurukshetra, a woman refuses to be forgotten. One terrible oath and a single flame born to destroy that oath. Amba was meant to be a queen. Instead, she was taken, discarded, and left with nothing but a vow for vengeance. But vengeance, she learns, is not simple-it is tangled with memory, desire, and the man she both loathes and cannot escape: Bhishma, the vow-bound warrior whose eyes hold a fire he swears never to act upon. In this haunting reimagining of the epic, Amba's voice rises against the silence of history. Her journey spans courts and battlefields, dreams and nightmares, where love corrodes into hatred and longing sharpens into a blade. Bound by oaths. Consumed by destiny. Some wars are fought with swords. Others, in the dark between two gazes.

This is a fan fiction about my favorite couple Arjun and Draupadi. The story is from the Mahabharat only but the emotions and expressions are from my side. Hope you like it. This is not to hurt anyone's feelings. No copying of my work is allowed.

Summary: Karna-Parshuram interactions changing Karna and the course of the epic. (Outburst chapter is: A different ending to the Dyut Sabha. Karna saves Draupadi and Kunti reveals the truth.) (Suppose) Karna spends at least a decade under the tutelage of Bhagvan Parshurama, not only for weaponry but also for his daily teachings about righteousness. Unlike the actual Mahabharat, where Karna learns almost everything about weaponry from Drona and his only motive to go to Parshurama was to get the Brahmastra to use against Arjun, all modern adaptations want to make Drona reject Karna, make him Parshurama's (favourite) student and still want him to call Draupadi a "whore" at the Dyut Sabha - and this is what I refuse to accept. Any person, especially a child, who spends this long in the presence of, let alone learning from, an avatar of Vishnu himself, a student of Mahadev, cannot turn out to be evil. Update: returning back to this story because I have more free time now, hopefully aiming for something like biweekly updates.

A Mahabharat story. What is love, if not duty?

What happens when a firecracker from Kalyug crash-lands in the Dwapar Yuga with zero filter, a love for drama, and a heart that beats (too loudly) for Suryaputra Karna? Meet Madhurika, a modern girl with ancient sass, who accidentally time-travels into the Mahabharat... and turns everything upside down. From revealing future secrets mid-bhaang to matchmaking Dushala and Ashwatthama, to finding a bride for Bhishma (yes, THAT Bhishma), she's here to rewrite destiny - with glam, guts, and gallons of chaos. ✨ No Draupadi division. ✨ Karna is dramatic. Madhurika is more. ✨ Bhishma has a moustache. Just a moustache. ✨ Swayamvars, honey moons, bhang hangovers & "why are we all blushing?" moments. ✨ Featuring: Modern girls invading ancient Hastinapur and Dwarka one bhang glass at a time. And just when you think you've caught your breath, Madhurika's friends arrive with more matchmaking mayhem for the Pandavas, Kauravas, and anyone breathing in Aryavart. Because who needs Vyasa when you've got a drama queen from the 21st century?
